Looking for a good carnauba wax to put on my toy after sealing any suggestions ? Spray or paste ? Looking for shine not durability...THANKS !!!KB
 
I am lazy anymore and prefer a spray wax. And IMO the best with some durabilty is Optimum car wax. But there are a lot of options.

The real question is do you prefer spray, liquid, paste. Then we can go from there.

Bought OCW, never used it. Is it really that good?

IMO it is one of the better "spray wax" products out there.


  • Although I know it is a synthetic I consider it more of a wax product than a sealant. The look is more nuba like and not the bright shiny you get from a spray sealant / coating.
  • I have had it last 3-4+ months on its own in good conditions. So for me it is more than just a post wash wipe down product because it can really leave something long term behind.
  • It works well as a post wash drying aid if you choose to use it like that.
  • Some have had streaking issue with it but I usually find that it is weird levels of humidity or using to much and not getting it buffed off. I have only had issues with it once and it was my over use and humidity combined. Since then it works great for me every time.
  • It acts like a "true wax" in that it can fill some minor marring and such and make your paint look good even if its not perfect.

Thank you
 
Don't forget that a lot of so-called QD's have wax and can really make your paint pop. Poorboy's QD+ and FK425 for example. I also like Sonus Carnauba QD - it's not too expensive and a bit easier to use than the other two, but doesn't quite have the "wow" factor.

I'm surprised Ron didn't mention PB QW+.

Edit: I see now your car is White. FK425!

I am a KISS method person...
 
I got some OCW for use on fresh paintwork (based on the approval from Ford). I sometimes use it as a drying aid and I must say I like how it looks on Audi silver. By itself or over something else, it's worth trying IMO.

Is it for the Vette? Personally I like the look of spray sealants better on light color cars but since you are looking carnauba, BLACKFIRE Midnight Sun Instant Detailer is a mix of carnauba and polymer and I have heard great things about it.
